The brief
The Roundhouse is one of the most iconic music venues in London, if not the UK. The challenge: there is an enormous amount going on in a very large space across three floors.
With a standalone Google virtual tour, navigating a building of that size and layout could have been frustrating - more than likely resulting in a drop-off of users.
What we did
We used Tourdash to enhance the Google virtual tour, guiding users around the key areas of the building - the Main Space, Studio Theatre, Dorfman Hub and Bars and Kitchen - with venue-hire calls to action built into the experience.
In its first 6 years, the tour averaged around 1 minute 13 seconds of usage per session - ideal for a call to action to be triggered - with thousands of unique and repeat users bringing a huge ROI. It has now been live for over 11 years.
